Radio-anthropogenic Assessments of Building Materials, Souls, Environment and their electro kinetic Remediation in Covenant University, Ota.

Goals/Objectives of Project

To evaluate the radioactivity level of 238 U, 232 Th, 40K and 137Cs in building materials, soil and environment.
To perform soil remediation of heavy metals (Uranium and thorium) using electrokinetic techniques
To study the mechanism of heavy metal ion mobility (Uranium and thorium ion) under the influence of the electric field between the anode and cathode with a view to neutralizing the soil for safer environments
To establish a simple and rapid technics for cleaning up the contaminated sites for siting of buildings on a safer soil.
To provide a simple and logical system for ranking radioactive sources in terms of their potentials to cause harm to human health.
And for grouping sourcing and the practices in which they are used into discrete categories.
To create a categorization system that would be used by Covenant University authorities in establishing the appropriate degree of regulatory control for many activities relating to the safety on security of radioactive sources.
Developing or refining Covenant University regulatory infrastructures.
Developing Covenant University strategies for improving control over radioactive sources.
Optimizing decisions about the priorities for regulation within resource constrains.
Optimizing security measures for radioactive sources, including measures directed for their possible malicious misuse.
Emergency planning and response for new structures/buildings and environments.
